Eve Lynnette Diem

Welcome, Art Lovers!

I am both an art teacher and an artist. I have taught art at all levels of K-12 for 34 years including in Jakarta, Indonesia! Currently, I teach Drawing/Painting and Sculpture/Ceramics at Davis Senior High School. Watching students discover their creative and artistic abilities brings me great joy.

Because of the demanding job, it can be challenging to find time to work on my own paintings. Most recently my work is inspired from places I have traveled.

In the 9 years living in Indonesia I fell in love with pattern and design. Since coming to live in Northern California, trees and landscapes have crept into my work. I continue to travel during the summer to seek new inspiration for my paintings. In my current series, I have assembled found objects and sculptural material onto the canvas to play with surface and multiple views. Old pieces of wood, frames, and painted canvases are used both as painting surfaces and compositional devices.

But, mostly, it is the students that inspire me everyday!
